• In all honesty, I wish I could give this band all 10's on this five point scale. They were the big reason why this night was one of the best nights of my life. Their energy, their talent, and their wide range of song selection made for a night our guests will never forget. People couldn't stop talking about how great the band was. If a band's performance is measured by how much people are dancing, then the fact that once they started playing, the dance floor was absolutely filled to the end of the night is a testament to how amazing they truly were. The icing on the cake was how great they were to deal with. So flexible, so accommodating. Book this band!! -- Stephen M, Toronto, ON, 9/4/2010
• No problem giving a recommendation here. Parkside Drive was simply amazing. My only request was that they play music to keep the party rolling...and they certainly did. The dance floor was overflowing the entire night. I think they may have even shortened up their break in between sets since the crowd was loving them so much. The set list was perfect...they played some great favorites and some great pop songs. Even two Lady Gaga songs...which the bride was fully impressed by. The lead singer even sung a song while dancing with us on the dance floor! Honestly, I really couldn't think of a better band to have at our wedding. Thanks again guys! -- Derek B, Huntsville, ON, 8/28/2010
• We booked Parkside Drive immediately after checking them live at a local bar. Very professional and prompt with all the small details that come with planning a wedding. Every one of our guests loved the band and the songs they played - young and old! We would have a wedding again just so we can hire them again to play. Thanks again! Rob + Joan -- Joan V, Toronto, ON, 8/7/2010
• We had an absolute blast with Parkside Drive! They were extremely easy going, set up ahead of time, were accomodating to any of our requests and most of all - they rocked! All band members were friendly & sociable. They were engaging & created a comfortable enviroment where everyone danced & had a great time. The play list was exactly what we were looking for & they nailed it. The singer came into the crowd and danced with people while singing - it was all memorable and added an incredibly special touch to our party. Great band, tons of fun, lots of talent - I would definitely book them again and recommend them to other parties! -- Jessica C, Toronto, ON, 10/3/2009
